Abstract

System for collating and binding signatures to produce customized versions of books or magazines, comprising a conveyer (40) running along a number of workstations, including feeder stations (5-8), printer stations and a stitching station and comprising a number of checkpoints (16-19), one for each of the abovementioned stations. The system includes furthermore a reject station (10) and a computersystem to control the various stations. This computer system comprises a number of controllers (21-25), one for each of said stations coupled to a central computer (31) by means of a network (30). During operation of the system each controller is loaded with suitable software enabling the controller to control the functioning of the assigned station independent of the other controllers and whereby the transfer of a message indicating the misfunctioning of one of said stations from the respective controller to the central processor will cause the central processor to send a message to the printer stations (15), feeder stations and stitching station (9) downstream of the station in which the misfunctioning occured instructing these stations to stop the further production of the book or magazine influenced by said misfunctioning, to send a message to the reject station to reject (10) said non completed book or magazine and to send messages to all stations to update the data defining the magazines or books to be produced such that a replacement for the rejected non completed book or magazine will be produced.
